An important meeting was held in
Buffalo at the Western Transit com
pany's office Friday. Messrs. 5. ID.
Caldwell, manager of the Western
Line, Capt. Thomas Wilson, of Cleye-
land, and Capt. James w. Millen, Of
Detroit, as the arbitration committee
of the Lake Carriers association, pass
ed upon the salvage case of the Ly-
coming and Jewett The following is
the official report Of the action:
The board of arbitration appointed
under the rules Of the Lake Carriers
association to settle the claims of the
steamer lycoming for services render
Ell the steamer II. J Jewett, on Lake
Michigan, November, 81, 1886, have
ing CAREFUL V considered the statements
submitted by both parties IN interest,
and having examined the logs of the
respective vessels, as entered at the
time, decide as follows, their feeling
being that the Lycoming should be 50
compensated as TO literally pay for
the assistance rendered and risk incurr-
ed, yet without recognizing any prin-
ciple Of salvage. The owners of the
Jewett shall pay to the owners of the
Lycoming $4,000 with interest ut 6
per cent from March 3, 1887, this be-
ing sixty days after the date Of the bill
rendered by the Lycoming.
As this is the first case taken up by
the Lake Carriers it is especially i'm
portant, as forming precedent for flu
ture eases. The Anchor line demand
ed $4,000, but the Union line offer
Ell no amount, Neither party appeared
before the committee except through
their written statement Of the case 1t
was found that these agreed entirely
as to the facts, The committee felt
though the the actual service in one
sense was small-only five hours were
spent and fifteen miles sailed over in
taking the Jewett to place of safety
consideration had TO be given her
valuable cargo, and it was thoughtpro-
per to pay the Lyeoming literally in
order to make it an object for other
vessels TO undertake the rescue Of yes
sells discovered in distress.
